Definitions
- This disclosure relates to winding fault detectors, and more particularly, to turn-to-turn winding fault detector systems and methods.
- Winding coils are incorporated into a wide variety of products, for example, into inductors and transformers. More particularly, in electrical power transmission systems, various components, for example, a power transformer or a shunt reactor, can include one or more winding coils. Various types of faults can occur in these windings when in use. Some of these faults, for example, a short circuit between the output terminals of a power transformer are more readily detectible than other faults such as, an internal short circuit between a few turns of a primary winding or a secondary winding of the power transformer. The internal short circuit between the few turns may not necessarily result in a significant change in the amount of current being delivered by the power transformer to a power transmission line that is coupled to the power transformer. However, if timely remedial action is not taken, such a fault can eventually develop into a major fault that can severely impact power transmission through the power transmission line.
- Conventional fault detection devices which are typically configured to detect significant current changes in various types of windings may be unable to effectively detect small turn-to-turn faults in such windings. More particularly, conventional fault detection devices may lack adequate sensitivity to detect changes in low amplitude differential currents that are indicative of turn-to-turn faults. Consequently, some solutions have been proposed that are directed at detecting turn-to-turn faults using other techniques. For example, one conventional solution generally pertains to fault detection in a power transformer by using a negative sequence based algorithm incorporating a differential principle, while another conventional solution generally pertains to fault detection in a power transformer by using a negative sequence based algorithm incorporating a direction comparison principle.

- IA, IB, and Ic are phase current measurements provided to the turn-to-turn detector 120 by the current monitoring elements 125, 130, and 135;
- ZA, ZB, and Zc are phase impedances of the three windings 1 14, 1 16, and 1 17 of the three-phase shunt reactor 155;
- V2 and Vi are negative sequence and positive sequence voltages respectively;
- I2 and Ii are negative sequence and positive sequence currents respectively.
- An absolute value of the difference parameter (Diff) can be used by the turn-to-turn fault detector 120 to declare a fault condition.
- a fault condition can be declared when the absolute value of the difference parameter (Diff) exceeds a threshold percentage value "c."
- the threshold percentage value "c" can be a settable threshold value that can be set by an operator of the turn-to-turn fault detector 120.
- a fault condition can also be declared by examining vector representations of phases associated with each of the voltages VA, VB, and Vc. In one exemplary embodiment, this can be carried out by using the expression Z (Diff - Diffsteady).
- Z (Diff - Diffsteady) A faulty "phase A” may be declared when Z (Diff - Diffsteady) is in a range of 180° ⁇ D
- a faulty "phase B” may be declared when Z (Diff - Diffsteady) is in a range of -60° ⁇ D

- "D" is a limit angle that can be set in a range of 20° to 60°.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an example phase diagram 200 pertaining to detecting one or more turn-to-turn faults in the three-phase shunt reactor 155 on the basis of phase angle information.

- a modifier value that is equal to a magnetizing current component value can be used. The modifier value may be subtracted from a steady-state differential current value to provide the compensation.
- the compensated steady-state differential current value can then be used to detect a turn-to-turn fault, such as, for example, by comparing a compensated steady-state differential current value against a reference threshold value.
- the comparing may be carried out over a pre-settable period of time that can be pre-set by an operator, for example.
